Dreamstime is my GO TO source for graphics. I am co-publisher of a real estate magazine, and I always turn to Dreamstime for our "lifestyle" or holiday graphics. The prices are affordable, and the quality is supreme.

I hope that Dreamstime comes up with a 3-month subscription with 10 images per day download quota. Currently they have a 3-month subscription but it has a 25 per day quota, which is too expensive. The lower-costing package is 1-month with 2-/day quota which is too short a period.

I found Dreamstime very easy to use and found lots of photos to use for our website. I missed the 'auto renewal' button on the order sheet and am now 3 credits away from being hit for another $149. Not right. I will make a note and go back in to revise, but would be really annoyed if I found the charge on my credit card!

I've been using Dreamstime for photo use for my blog for about 4 years. The photo selection is great quality and their pricing is fair.

I think this site is awesome! I always research dreamstime.com when I need a photo or inspiration. There are so many great photos on this site. Purchasing credits to buy them is quick and easy too. I always recommend this site to my friends and co-workers. Keep up the great work!

I've found Dreamstime to be an excellent source of stock images. The selection is very broad, and the pricing is reasonable. They're my first choice for images.

I've been using Dreamstime for several years and have almost always found the images I've been looking for. I also think the images (if you're prepared to spend a little time searching) are of good quality and represent good value for money.

I loved the thumbnail of the image I bought, but when I downloaded it at the largest size I could buy, I discovered that there were several seams/lines where the artist had peiced together different images and just wasn't thorough with their editing/blending. Big disappointment. I recommend better quality control.

The dreamstime images I use to make book covers and graphic art for web sites are top notch. The site is slick and easy to use and the history of downloads is a great help to me. On every job I always go to Dreamstime first!

I used lot of dreamstime images for my personal website and I found 99% of images I had in my mind in the search. I used only small sized images so price is 1-2 euro each.

Instead of reward loyalty I saw my prices being increased over the time. I have now more then 350 images donwload. It's a considerable amount. It would be expected to see some consideration for the loyalty

I am usually very happy with the pictures I receive from Dreamstime but I have to say I was very disappointed in the last purchase. It would be helpful for you to allow customers to see very large photos before making a purchase. I purchased a picture of a hand that looked beautiful in all of the images before the purchase. But when I received the jpg, I could see that the model was wearing fake nails and that one looked like it was popping right off the finger. Not at all the quality I was expecting for the money I paid. My suggestion is to let potential customers zoom way into to any photos they are interested in purchasing.
Update: The good news is that they now let you zoom in. Thank you Dreamstime!
